4 REMARKABLE trial closed at Tifin,
Ohio, a few days ago, in the conviction
Of Charles K. Gaines, a blind man, for
murder in the second degree, probably
the only case of the kind on record.
Charles K. Gaines was born in Syca-
more, Wyandotte County, Ohio, fifty
years ago. At the age of four years he
one day wandered from the door to the
barn, where his attention was attracted
by litter of pigs. These struck his
fancy, and he appropriated one, and
this so enraged the SOW that she rushed
at him and mangled him terribly, his
eyes being destroyed. The child was
rescued and recovered, though his eye
balls were entirely gone. In a few
years he had developed a remarkable
sensitiveness of touch, smell, and hear
ing. He had a strong tendency to pre-
cociousnsss, and before he had grown
up he became the terror of the neigh
borhood. He would wander about,
night and day. without a guide, and
was never known to get lost. He knew
where every melon-patch was, where
the best apples, peaches, and plums
grew, and where the best berries ripen-
ed, and was never backward about
helping himself to any of these or
other delicacies. As he grew to man
hood he learned to drink whisky, and
became ugly and quarrelsome. In
1871 he married Medora Sprague, a
graduate of Tifin High School. For
a time he was sober and industrious
He Joined the church and made tenn
perance speeches, greatly moving his
audiences. Many are the strange
things he has done. He has been seen
on q steep roof mailing on shingles, and
working as well and as fast as the next
man. He could find his way with per.
feet ease anywhere; could recognize an
an acquaintance at some distance before
he spoke, rode horseback recklessly
and played the violin finely. His ca
reer as a temperance advocate was
short, for he soon went back to drink

The climax was reached last August,
when he went On a protracted spree
and his wife ordered the saloon-keeper
not to sell him any whisky. The next
day, August 10, Games and his neph-
ew, Nathan EcheIbery, got drunk on
hard cider, and then went to the saloon
and demanded whisky. Failing to get
it, they left and tried to borrow q re-
volver, but could not get one. They
then returned to the saloon, each with
a large stone, and, again being refused
whisky. they killed the saloon-keeper
with the stones. The police arrested
Gaines in the cane-feld, and he was
brought in hatless, coatless, shoeless
and eyeless. With long hair hanging
over his shoulders, and six feet tall, he
looked like a wild man. For eight
months he sat in jail, amusing himself
with his violin. His nephew and ao-
eomphoe was sent to the penitentiary
for life. and his own conviction nov

whipped his child until death resulted
from the injuries, and the neighbors
neither Iynched him nor had him ar
rested. They adopted that good old
plan of the pioneers. and resolved to
give Black dose Of his own medicine.
They appointed a committee of twenty
five men, whose qualification for serv-

armed with buggy-whips, led Black
from the house, stripped him Of every
yestige of clothing, and then turned
him loose to dodge the twenty-five

THE DAEaER OF BALD EEADs.

THE DAEGER OF Bald HHADs.

doctor, your life is shortened, (" inter

bald-headed, no matter where I am.
and by that means I never take cold.
The majority of men who have bald
heads wear nothing to protect the ex-
posed surface, not even a wig. The re-
suit Is many Of them take cold and 20
on with pneumonia or contract some
deep-seated disease like bronchitis or
consumption. Yet if I told a bald
headed man to wear something warm
on the exposed spot he would, nine
times out Of ten, pay no attention to
my warning. 1t Is a growing cause Of
increased mortality and deserves great
attention both from scientists and en-
pirical laymen- Bald heads are the
sign-pOsts Of a high estheticaI civiliza-
tion and at the same time the epitaphs
Of a physical degeneration. Luxury,
ease, comfort. high living, and heredi-
! tary characteristics have to be taken
INTO consideration when Analysing the
problem Of bald heads. If the future
race Is to be devoid Of hair, then It
must necessarily be a short-Iived one,
| because more susceptible to sickness.
L have noted many cases OfPneumonia,
and where the patient is a male over 40
years old the proportion is over one
[ half In favor of being bald-headed.
Whenever I have a ba1d-headed patient
1 never rest until he consents to wear
a skuII-cap. If the hair was no pro-
| lection to man he would have been
created without any, and his skin made
tough and thick to stand the weather.
The wise provisions made to insure per
feet physical comfort never contem-
plated a period In the worlds history
when man should go about with his
head slick as a peeled onion. The man
who does it repeatedly sooner or later
pays the penalty.
Caesar was bald In his last days and
shielded his Uranium by wearing a crown.
In those days, when hats were not worn,
few people were bald, and those who
were attempted to conceal the fact. II
is said that Caesar wore the crown to
hide his bald head. and it may be added
correctly that he did it for comfort as
we'll Women do not suffer from the
exposure of bald heads because they
wear false head rigging which generally
protects the scalp. Then females are
not predisposed to badness as males.
Nature has given them an abundance
of hair, and those who grow bald have
some kind of skin trouble. Yet there
are more baId-headed women than the
world imagines. My argument against
going about with the scalp exposed il
merely from a hygienic point Of view
and not because Of any false notions
about how it makes a person look. Ole

what under the sun had Heber to do

Our Farm animals.

The revised census Of live stock from
the beginning of 1877 shows that We
have In the United States and Terri
tories u, 496, TIA horses valued at 1901,
685, 755, an average Of S72.15 each /;
mules, 2, III, IA, valued at $167, O57, .
538, averaging 1881. OF mich
COWS we have IA, 622, O83, worth 1878, =
789, $50, an average of S26.08 each. Of
oxen and other cattle there are SO, 51I, =
100, Of a value Of $633, 1877, 926, or worth
STATS each, a total of 48, O33, 833 head.
worth S1,042, 927, 515. OF sheep there
are A, 759, 314, worth $50, 872, 839, or
$2.O1 each. Hogs foot up "A, 6I2, 839
head, valued at $500, O34, 291, OF $448
each. The sum total of the live stock
Of the country may therefore be esti-
mated at gross value of g, 401, $50, 93S
for everything, old and young.
An Interesting fact in this connection
is the low average value Of all the ami
mails enumerated as compared with the
value Of those we1-bred. There is
still great room for improvement, not
Withstanding the number of highly
bred animals of all kinds in the country
and the yearly impOrtatiOns of pure
and thoroughbred stock. Another
curious fact Is that the average mule is
y
horse, including the better bred. The
average horse Is worth nearly three
times as much as the average mich
COW, and nearly four times as much as
all other cattle averaged, the average
for the horse being that of all ages.
Another important and significant
fact Is that values Of farm animals, as
rule, ags less In the Southern than in
the Northern States, and as q matter of
course somewhat less in the Western
than in the Eastern States. The rea-
son for this Is that transportation must
be added between the West and the
East. Since the South does not pro-
duce nearly all the beet, mutton, and
pork it consumes why should prices be
so low there2 There is but one an
swer. The South is not paying the at
tention necessary In the breeding and
the feeding Of what livestock may be
abls to be carried there.

Superintendent Macdonald of the New

five per cent of the unfortunates committed
TO his charge are foreign born persons, and
that the majority of them were lunatics
when they came to this country and were
placed in the asylum soon after their ar.
rival. From Which it would appear that
the old world Is using America not only a
the dunping ground for her psupers, aaar-
chists or socialists, but also as an asylum for
her insane. When will congress see the
necessity for putting stop to IL all? For
the industrious i'm migrant there Is still
room, but there is none for tn ,se classes
that are likely soon after their arrival to
find their way to the penltontiaries, asylums
and poor houses, to become public charge,
or to become public nuisances and enemies
by preaching false political doctrines. Tn.
less immigrants can become Am orleans In
thought and purpose, Am erica has no use
or place for them.
